We've had our girls help during freshman move-in and be freshman orientation leaders. Two problems though:

The campus won't allow us to wear ANYTHING Greek while moving freshman in. My one friend KJ is a Delta Chi. He was wearing his "move-in" shirt, and had a DX hat on. They said he couldn't wear anything to promote any organization on campus while an orientation leader. Kinda sucks.

(oh, but one good thing this year... it's our campus' 60th anniversary, and the Greeks are putting on "Behrend's Birthday Bash" during move-in weekend, which includes food, a DJ, fun activities, etc. So that should help!)

Second... the dreaded '01 rule, as we call it. 1st semester freshman on our campus can't join a GLO. We have Club Rush in the fall, and a lot of girls give us their info, we contact them all semester, but most won't come to recruitent events because they can't join that semester. Then they find other things to join in the meantime, and when we contact them the next semester to come to things, they say they have too much going on.

That's because he was an orientation leader. They are supposed to be impartial individuals. If the Greek community as a whole is helping and everyone is wearing the same shirt, that's a different matter.
